Don't just add this game for the sake of preservation, give us the version of the game we were meant to have in the first place, especially with how heavily censored this game was.
This one really needs to come back to life, the only way to play it is through piracy or buying the disc used. It may be a bit of controversial but is part of it's magic, we'd love the uncesored version of it, I'll gladly pay for it.

I was lucky enough to have discovered and purchased the AO-rated PC version of this game back when it was exclusively available on Direct2Drive with barely anybody knowing about it. The Wii motion controls were cleverly replaced with interactive mouse movements, and it featured additional variety thanks to rebalanced level design. As for the game itself, the gameplay and story are surprisingly thrilling and challenging. The game is full of cool-yet-messed-up moments that keeps you on the edge and makes you think about what's really going on. Even getting the alternate ending is a challenge in itself, and not just on a pure skill level. If I had to vote for Rockstar Games's most artsy game, it would be this one, and that's saying something considering the general quality of its releases. Unfortunately the license I have for the PC version has a nasty DRM with limited online activations, so there is a risk that I may lose the game forever at any time. A GOG release would not only allow everyone to experience this masterpiece as it should always have been, but would free it from becoming lost media forever.

GOG should add this game mainly because it's lost media now and is banned in a lot of countries due to its violent content, only way to play this game now is through piracy or with a emulator.
I had the opportunity to dive into this game Manhunt 2 that has left a lasting impression on me, and I can't help but share my excitement. This game Manhunt 2, which I found to be incredibly cool and fun, evokes a sense of familiarity reminiscent of the Hitman series, but with a distinct twist that sets it apart: an increased level of gore that adds a visceral edge to the gameplay. From the moment I started playing, I was struck by the meticulous attention to detail in the environments. Each level is crafted with a rich atmosphere that draws you in, much like the beautifully designed locales of Hitman.

Manhunt 2 is a different beast from the original Manhunt. I actually had the Wii version years ago. You actually play as two characters. This plays heavily on psychical to undercover the truth. You get a surprisingly violent game. It almost had an AO rating before they heavily tone the game down. If you seen footage of the uncut version. It easily makes the most brutal finishers of the first game seem like child's play. If you were previously given nightmares from those. You may struggle to balance back from Manhunt 2's finishers. Manhunt 2 might not have the best story as well as characters to a degree. The levels just doesn't feel like those in the original Manhunt at all. I still could say this was a decent sequel in it's own right. Manhunt 2 was ahead of the curve in many ways. It took gaming a long time to follow within it's foot steps. Easily among the most violent games I ever played!!! I would be happy to play the version they do release on here. A lot of people missed out on this game for a few reasons. Either they didn't know it existed until years later or people gotten disappointment over it getting toned down. Mostly made it difficult to see the actual finishers that's it. There's still a lot of people that gotten to enjoy this game including myself. It's currently overlooked as well as underrated to a degree. Manhunt 2 differs just enough from the original game to stand out. Sadly this was the last entry in that franchise.

The heavy censorship of Manhunt 2 significantly altered its creators' original vision. Allowing only the censored version to be available denies players the opportunity to experience the game as it was originally intended. GOG's preservation of the uncensored version is crucial to the artistic and historical integrity of the video game, allowing adults to make an informed decision about which version to play and appreciate the work in its full form.

Give this game the uncut release with Extended Executions, Controller Support like it was on PS2 and patch it with fixes and 120FPS. In the retail disc I bought, it comes with the SecuROM PA, which forced the game to run in one cores, which caused it to stuttering and you have to check it to all cores manually via Task Manager. So yeah, I hope GOG isn't afraid of Adults Only rating by the ESRB, because they allowed Adult-visual Novel in their store.

Manhunt 2 is a game which I don't personally like very much, but it is a work of art and is heavily censored due to violent scenes. Having this on GOG would make it available to us forever legally.
**Why Manhunt 2 Uncut Deserves a Place on GOG and Recognition as a Horror Classic** *Manhunt 2 Uncut* is one of the most controversial and underrated games of all time. Released in 2007 and developed by Rockstar London, it built upon the foundations of the original *Manhunt* while diving deeper into psychological horror, storytelling, and player immersion. The Uncut version, which restores the original execution visuals and intended violence, represents the developers' true vision—one that was heavily censored or banned in many regions. GOG, a platform known for preserving classic games DRM-free and unaltered, is the perfect place for *Manhunt 2 Uncut* to be reintroduced to a new generation of players. What sets *Manhunt 2* apart is its focus on a broken protagonist, Dr. Daniel Lamb, whose descent into madness is expertly woven into the gameplay. The dual personality dynamic with Leo Kasper adds depth rarely seen in stealth games, and the narrative explores themes of identity, control, and sanity. Combined with brutal executions, eerie sound design, and a haunting atmosphere, the game creates a uniquely intense experience. While the original *Manhunt* is often credited for pushing boundaries, *Manhunt 2* elevated the concept with better AI, more interactive environments, and improved gameplay mechanics. It is a masterclass in stealth horror design that remains relevant today. Bringing *Manhunt 2 Uncut* to GOG would not only preserve a bold artistic statement—it would give the game the legacy it truly deserves, free from censorship, and celebrated for its raw, psychological intensity.
